​Specific Rate of Compensation Special Provision

The Department will continue t​o encourage consultants to create rate cards to establish class rates that can be used for short term substitutions when there is not an individual rate for the substitute employee already established in the contract. The special provision will be inserted into applicable contracts to explain the process for using employees not named in the contract.

The Department staff have been given the following guidelines to use when evaluating a consultant's request to approve use of a class rate rather than amending to add an individual rate:

• The substitute employee will charge less the 40 hours to the contract

Or

• The substitute employee's current wage rate is more than 95% of the wage rate used to establish the class rate for the contract.  (Dec.​ 10, 2020)
